Taylor Swift fans fooled by singer's pic showing alleged baby bump as pregnancy rumors start to swirl

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Pop icon Taylor Swift's fans were fooled into believing that the singer is pregnant after a viral picture showed Swift with an alleged baby bump.

The viral picture was shared across X (formerly Twitter) where several Taylor Swift fans began claiming that the singer was pregnant, according to the Daily Mail.

Optical illusion makes fans believe Taylor Swift is pregnant

The picture that went viral online was nothing but an optical illusion that made fans believe Taylor Swift was pregnant.

Upon closer inspection of the picture, it showed that Swift's black mini-dress had blended into a black car in the background, which made it look like the 'Love Story' singer had a large baby bump.

The rumor swirled after an insider revealed to the Daily Mail that the singer's ex-best friend, Blake Lively's texts, calls, and emails to the singer were going unanswered.

The source said, "She's been reaching out to her with texts, voicemails and even emails begging to mend what they once had. Blake isn't giving up on trying to get her friendship with Taylor back on track."

"Taylor hasn't responded to any of Blake's pleas. She's ignored all her groveling excuses. The missives explain there must be some misunderstanding on Taylor's part and that she would never do anything to harm their ten years of closeness and personal secrets," the insider added.

The 35-year-old singer spent the weekend with her bestie, Selena Gomez, in New York, and honored her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, during the outing.

Moreover, Swift and Gomez were seen at Monkey Bar in Manhattan on Saturday, May 31, while Kelce was in Kansas City for the Big Slick charity event, per the outlet.

The pop icon was wearing a custom Wove x Michelle Wie West gold and diamond tennis friendship bracelet with the letters "TNT" during the outing, according to TMZ.

Taylor and Travis, who have been together since 2023, have sparked rumors recently that they're planning to get married and start a family.
